Changes to machine parameters
For HEIDENHAIN CNC controls
The machine parameter for the signal period of the output signals of the axis concerned must be permanently changed
from 16 µm to 20 µm.

NC-kernel based CNC controls: Axes/ParameterSets/[Keyname]/CfgAxisHardware/posEncoderDist (400005)
Non-HEIDENHAIN controls
The machine parameter for the signal period of the output signals of the axis concerned must be permanently changed
from 16 µm to 20 µm.
If necessary, please contact your machine tool builder or control manufacturer for the exact procedure.
General information
Further work steps may be required on machines with functional safety. Read the Technical Manual of
your CNC control and contact your machine tool builder.
